Soooooooo, this is my 30's. Pretty typical really. Husband, three kids, a dog, kids begging for another pet, full-time job. But typical doesn't mean boring! Every day is something new. Some of it wonderful and fun. Some of it makes me want to pull my hair out. Either way this is my 30's and I'm loving it!

A Mom Named Gwen

Tonight I asked Justin to tell me a story to distract me
from itching my bug bites.As he began
telling stories he has the idea that they were going to be a book series.He named it “The Mom Named Gwen” however he
says that they are not about me.I’m not
convinced.(Then I just read this back
to him and he laughed hard and said that it is actually about me.It is mostly about this family except for the
dad part because he is a nice dad and he loves him for it.)

Book 1

Once there was a mom named Gwen.And she was so nice to her boys that she even
got their favorite donuts for breakfast even though they were having a really
hard time.Plus she was also very kind
to share money to the poor.But one day
she was mean to her boys.She was very
upset and disappointed.Then she
apologized and even let the boys sleep in her bed.The End.

Book 2

Once there was a mom named Gwen.One day the boys threatened their mom.And then the mom cried and cried while the
boys just cleaned up the whole house.The
mom didn’t even look.Then they said
they were sorry and the mom said that is not enough.She looked at the whole house and there wasn’t
even a crumb in site.She loved the boys
and she even scratched their back and let them lay in her bed.The End.

In reviewing his work, Justin believes that Book 2 is “even
more impressive” than Book 1.

Book 3

The Grumpy Dad

Once there was a grumpy dad named John.He was very mean to his kids.One day on a sunny morning the dad thought
about the way he has been to his children all of his life.Then one day his heart grew and grew and he
was very nice to his children for the rest of his life.Even though he was still a little grumpy to
his kids he always loved him at the bottom of his heart.And the kids all grew up to be as nice as
that dad.The End.
